Easter in the Valley 2024

The Easter long weekend was a busy time in the Valley! 

We had wonderful catch ups with friends and family, and a great Easter morning tea with the volunteer team, including voli Emma who was visiting from her new home in QLD. 



There were plates of hot cross buns, carrot cake and even savoury Easter bunny muffins thanks to voli Kelly, which were delicious! 



Kenneth lamb was in his Easter attire, and Garry was happy to pose with a colourful Easter bag that he loved to play with. 




There were so many animal friendly Easter treats available this year, including Nomo egg casks and bunnies, Lovingearth mini eggs and Lindt dark bunnies – a win win for chocolate lovers and the animals!

We were short on time over the break, but managed to make a delicious hot potato salad on Easter night, which was quick and healthy – see the recipe below!


Easter Potato Salad

Ingredients:

 - 1kg baby potatoes, boiled until soft

- 1 tablespoon of Nuttlex buttery

- 2 spring onions, finely chopped

- 500g sliced mushrooms

- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil

- Salt and pepper to taste

Method:

- Fry the mushrooms in vegetable oil until brown. 

- Slice baby potatoes in half and coat in Nuttelex. 

- Arrange on a plate and cover with cooked mushrooms, spring onions, then add salt and pepper to taste. 

The salad is simple, filling and is a great side to vegan patties or sausage rolls!
